There is no time between these. On the day before the autumnal equinox, the sun is directly overhead in the northern hemisphere (at a latitude just north of the equator).

The sun goes from being overhead in the northern hemisphere to the southern hemisphere instantaneously, the change happening at the autumnal equinox.
